UTHSC鈥檚 healthcare simulation center will be one of the largest in the world, and it will be interdisciplinary, accommodating training programs for Medicine, Nursing, Allied Health, Pharmacy and Dentistry within the center. Students from these different programs will be working together in a safe, immersive, and simulated healthcare environment that teaches them to tackle today鈥檚 biggest healthcare challenges in a risk-free setting.
B-Line Medical鈥檚 SimCapture庐 platform was selected by UTHSC to manage and operate the simulation center. Over three hundred coordinated and centralized video streams throughout the center incorporate multiple camera angles and medical devices for comprehensive event capture. UTHSC faculty will use SimCapture to record, analyze, and evaluate the performance of interdisciplinary healthcare teams. SimCapture will also allow faculty to provide students with robust, web-based portfolios and a firm understanding of their simulation outcomes.
President of B-Line Medical, Hartley Thompson says, 鈥淯THSC鈥檚 and BCBS鈥� commitment to healthcare simulation and patient safety aligns perfectly with our company鈥檚 mission and vision. We鈥檙e honored to have been chosen for such an important and progressive project. The scope and interdisciplinary approach taken by UTHSC will be a model for other institutions to follow.鈥�
